Double Gameweek 37 enters its fifth day of action this evening, serving up two more fixtures to entertain Fantasy managers.

Arsenal welcome Sunderland to the Emirates in the 7.45pm kick-off as Alexis Sanchez looks to add to his goal and assist haul in Saturday’s demolition of Stoke.

Captained by 10.6% of FPL managers, the Chilean is the second most popular armband pick for the Gameweek. As expected, he has shrugged off a leg problem to start against the Black Cats, while fellow weekend scorers Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud are also named in the first XI as Arsene Wenger’s side attempt to keep their hopes of a top-four finish alive.

Man City entertain West Bromwich Albion in the second match of their Double Gameweek at 8pm.

Sergio Aguero returns to the starting XI alongside Gabriel Jesus as Raheem Sterling drops to the bench for the home side. The Argentine produced zero points as a sub at home to Leicester on Saturday, though boasting a 17% ownership, he is City’s most captained player (8.1%) for their pair of fixtures.

The top transfer target for Double Gameweek 37, Jesus rewarded his 217,000+ new owners with an eight-point haul against the Foxes, while Leroy Sane’s 7% backers will be hoping for more of the same after he delivered a season-high 11 points in the weekend win.

    Costa nailed on this weekend?

    1. dunas_dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Should be starting

  2. Coaly
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    a) Haz Gabbi to Cout Giroud -4
    b) Haz to Cout
    c) Do nothing and play King, bench Gabbi

    1. DJ1000
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      haz to Cout

    2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I'd probably do C

    3. Guru Mediation
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah C

    4. Our Tiny Windows
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I think C. Hazard to Couthino is a coin flip but Couthino had has time. Let hazard finish the season.

    Haz>Coutinho look like the transfer to do

    1. Je suis le chat
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I just want a Gabbi no-show to get points from bench.

        Don't get your hopes up - Puel said he was rested at the weekend

    A Stephens clean sheet would be heavenly tomorrow!

      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Agreed, I am on 150 and Forster, Yosef, and Stephens to play tomorrow......a cleanse would be heaven

        No need to put your faith in Yosef or Stephens for a cleanse, a quick shower will sort that out for you 😉

      3. Legendary!

        A cleanse is always heaven

  5. Je suis le chat

    Kaku, 24 goals, Alexis with 23 goals and Kane with 22. Should be a good climax in too scorer battle.

    1. drughi
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      especially if kane scores against leicester

    2. fedolefan
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      How Kaku is stuck on 24 is beyond me. He'll never be elite.

      1. Klopp For The Kopps 😆
        • 10 Years

        Why dont you Credit him for Getting to 24 at the first place?

    Play Holgate /friend /maguire or :

    A) sell for a hit

    B) sell for free and keep hazard

    1. Teddy Brewski
      • 11 Years

      B

    My casual rival is jammy , the bonus points system is broken because my player didn't get any points , that was totally my players assist , no way was that an o.g . They should just change the rules so I always get my way . Thoughts ?

    1. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I can relate. I'm in charge of explaining the baps in my ML and they're all mad at me because of it, as if I made the rules 🙂

      1. Freshy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        At least they didn't quit

    2. George Sillett
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I agree. Moan , moan , moan woe is me.

    3. 32chickens
      • 15 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      It's a game

  8. Jayv807
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    I was down 107pts to my ML leader after GW35 who was ranked just under 9k overall. After today's games I'll be up 19. He has had a shocker of a week with 61pts with Costa TC. Can't believe the turnaround. Now I just have to hold on.

    1. Frank Koscielny
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Well done, lad

  9. JustPark
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Injury factor aside, chances for them to start the last fixture of the league?
    A) Cech
    B) Stephens
    C) Yoshida
    D) Alonso

    1. George James
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      B only doubt IMO

      1. JustPark
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Was actually on D tbh.

    2. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      All in although Stephens may swap with Caceres

    3. Frank Koscielny
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Agree that Alonso is a benching risk. Which two would you bench of Stephens, Yoshi, Alonso, Vert and Monreal?

      1. JustPark
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Depends. I'm catching so I'll start someone who is and not in the rival team.

  10. The Royal Robin

    WEMBLEY!!!

  11. For Fuchs Sake

    Not confident on strong Chelsea team, why risk injuries for FA Cup?

    1. Pique boo

      Match fitness

    2. JustPark
      • 10 Years

      Be a good club and hand over the silverware?

  12. naits
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Sanchez 2 goals and not full bonus? Whats up?

    1. Adam West - Team Serbia for…
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Ozil played better than him

    2. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Özil broke a PL record in chances created (12).

  13. For Fuchs Sake
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    If Liverpool are 3-0 up against Boro at HT, then Sanchez could be subbed with Top 4 gone.

    1. Legomane
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Was gonna say ...remember Palace...then realised it's Middlesbrough we're talking about 🙂

  14. Mikel
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Forgot to press the Wildcard button two gameweeks ago so have it for the final gameweek. ML will come down to the final week so how does this look?

    Cech
    Monreal Lovren Vertonghen
    Sanchez(c) DeBruyne King Coutinho Sane
    Kane Jesus

    1. Sonny “The Hitman&rdq…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Sterling could come in for Sane

    2. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Looks good

    3. Our Tiny Windows
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Liverpool defender hmm. Double up on spurs instead?

      1. Belalugozi78
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        they play Boro. and they have 4 CS in last 5. They won't concede it is impossible.

    4. Pigsinblankets
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Maybe squeeze in Giroud or Studge and chop Sane since you already have KDB and Jesus? No Chelsea might hurt

  15. Fuchs Mane Kante
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Still number one in the Aland isles.

    Going to be an absolute dullard next season but get on the trannys early bird.

    Feels crazy to be selling Hazard ahead of a home game v Sunderland. Really hope he's rested.

    1. @fpl_phenom
      • 10 Years

      he will be

  24. Garth Marenghi

    Costa to Kane in 38?

  25. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Assuming 130 with 5 left is good on a WCBB week?

    Bench boost has been dire. Should have saved TC and BB earlier in the year.

  26. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    9 years, 1 month ago

    Surely Conte should play the XI that will start the cup final? Best preparation sometimes is playing football.

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I agree. And I ain't selling hazard before he plays Sunderland. Asking for trouble

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        Maybe he'll say something in the presser.

    How does this look for week 38 assuming no injury tomorrow and Thursday?Hazard to Fabregas and Gabbi to Sturridge for -4

    Caballero
    Alonso Monreal BDavies
    Sane Alli Fabregas King
    Kane Jesus Sturridge

    1. dunas_dog

      Exactly my thought ! See above post

  29. We Will Klopp you
    • 9 Years

    Would you rather

    A) Play Sane & Alli
    B) Use FT to get Llorente in for Negredo, bench sane/Alli
    C) Use FT to get Vokes in for Negredo, bench, Sane/Alli
    D) Use FT to get Origi in for Negredo, bench Sane/Alli

    Pretty sure Pickford didn't get awarded a save for the header he tipped onto the bar... would've been an extra point too

    1. ACCOUNTING ON CHRIS
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      Yeah other sources have 13 SOT for Arsenal which would imply another point...

      1. Ephurion
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 1 month ago

        It always confuses me that a scored goal is not a shot on target. In my mind they certainly on the target if they score.

    2. Pariße
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 1 month ago

      I think Walcott's semi-blocked shot also didn't count.
